Course Objectives: | It is to understand and analyse the United Nation's 2030 marine sustainability goals under the context of International Maritime Law and global warming. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; The students who have succeeded in this course; 1) Learn about the United Nation's 2030 marine sustaibanility goals, 2) Learn about the international maritime and environmental law principles, 3) Learn about the Blue Economy, 4) Learn about the Polar Regions, particularly the Arctic Ocean and its economic, legal and political structure. 5) Learn about the international organisations mandated with the power to regulate international marine affairs, 6) Learn about the definition of Global warming and Climate Change and their possible consequences and legal implications, 7) Learn about the energy investments, alternative energy sources and green finance concept 8) Learn how to effectively use english to present their ideas and communicate in the context of this class |
Starting from global warming and Arctic marine governance, it is to establish what are the legal tools that are used to protect the oceans (biodiversity and ecosystem services) and meet the UN 2030 sustainable development goas. In this context, we will review the powers given to the coastal states, international organizations, and regional bodies to govern the oceans that are being increasingly exploited by the multiple stakeholders, such as shipping and energy companies. |

Course Notes / Textbooks: | Ders notlarını kendim hazırlıyorum. Norvec Kutup Araştırmaları Enstitüsü ile Arktik araştırmaları yapıyor ve bolgeyi periyodik olarak ziyaret ediyorum. 2023 yılına kadar Norveçliler ile Svalbard adasında bilimsel arastirmalar yapacağım, tecrübelerimi öğrencilere aktaracağım. I will prepare the class notes. I work closely with the Norwegian Polar Institute. I will continue working with them as I have an agreement to join their research activities in the Arctic (Svalbard) untill 2023. Therefore, I will be sharing my experience gained throught this international collobaration with the class. |
